HP recommends that the boot LUN is presented as ID 0. Presenting it with another ID can
cause the boot LUN to not be discovered when a device scan is performed.

Once the vPar is booted, check all the boot paths and the boot options in the vPar data base,
and modify them to reflect the new boot paths.

Example boot processes in vPar environments

PA-RISC systems

Once the boot disk is found by the recommended search procedure for PA-RISC systems, the vPar
needs to be booting with –o “” to ensure the first vPar boots with no options.
